Drill lllll‘ns
lire sale
into hall

By Erlch Kraoel
Staﬂil/Vriter

Fireﬁghters, carrying hoses and fully geared,
rushed into a second floor residence hall room in
Blanding I last night as smoke poured out of the
room. The students efficiently evacuated the low
rise and it appeared as if one student was injured.

Many of the students who evacuated the building
were surprised to learn that this wasn't a real fire. It
was a new learning tool to train students in fire safety.

This new tool, termed “mock disaster situation,”
was coordinated by UK and the Lexington Fire
Department, as well as the Residential Hall Associ—
ation.

“This is the first time for a ‘mock disaster drill’
(at UK)," said UK Fire Marshall Garry Beach. “We
want students to realize how serious (this situation)
can be. It also adds excitement (to fire drills)"

Minutes after the initial entering of the building,
fire ﬁghters rushed out with a “mock casualty” who
was carried to an emergency buggy. Students thought
their fellow classmate was itijured or possibly dead.

“My (resident adviser) came down an pounded
on my door saying ‘there's smoke, get out of here!m
said Molly McGurk, a special education freshman.
“I was scared.“

The “mock casualty,“ junior psychology and
sociology major Shasta M'alker, played the part
because of her concern over students” attitudes
when faced with a fire alarm. “On our first drill,
(students) took their time.“ she said.

Smoke poured from a smoke machine super—
vised by firefighters. This convinced the students
that it could be the real thing.

“The smoke caught a lot of people‘s attention,”
said advertising sophomore Mindy Flder.

The instigation of the drill partly resulted from last
springs 45 false alarms in Kirw‘aii Tower, said UK
spokesman Ralph Derickson.

Beach says that not onlv are false alarms a hassle,
they also can be a hazard to everyone. “False fire
alarms are not only a pain for the students or for
me, but dangerous for the firemen.“ said Beach,
recallin a firefighter who was injured while
respon ing to a false alarm, mainly because each
ﬁremen treat each alarm as ifit’s real.

The University is re uired to hold two drills
each year, one announcer? and one unannounced.

Every fall semester, Beach trains house directors
in each building about fire safety. The house direc—
tors, in turn, pass this knowledge to the RAs and
residents. Beach wishes there could be more exten-

Women take center stage at GOIIIBI‘BIIBB

By Ellen Lord
Staff lVriter

In order to better inform students
of women’s issues, the Lexington
Community College is sponsoring a
“Women to \Vomen" conference
tomorrow from 8:30 a.m. to noon.

The purpose of the conference is to
“educate, empower and enrich all
women," said Denise Vll'hite, coordina—
tor ofmulticultural affairs at LCC and
co—chairwoman of the school‘s
Women's History Awareness Team.

While the team, composed of about
25 professors and staff persons from
LCC, is'“focusing primarily on women
students at LCC," they welcome UK
students as well as the general public,
White said.

Sixty eo le have already regis-
tered, an W ite expects up to 100 by

the morning of the conference.

Women can re ister in advance
with any of LCC's division secretaries
or at the drop box in the Oswald
Building. Registration will take place
from 8 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. in the Aca—
demic Technical Building on the LCC
Campus.

Partici ants will attend three brief
seminars read by “different professors
at LCC (and) three people out in
the community," White said. Local
television anchor Melanie Glasscock,
the keynote speaker of the day, s eaks
at 11:30 a.m. on “Laying a Fountfiation
for I Iappiness."

The morning sessions include
women’s health and sexual issues, non-
traditional jobs and roles of women,
power communication, women's legal
concerns and child care.

Pat Lefler, an associate professor of

psychology at LCC, will lead a session
on women's sexual health. ller seminar
will stress that women “need to be self-
informed, self—educatet ," about sexual-
ly transmitted diseases, Lefier said.

“STDs do not show up in routine
gynecological examinations," Lefler
said. In addition, if a woman believes
she is at risk for an STD, she must
often take the initiative to ask her doc-
tor for testing, Lefler said.

Lefler is particularly concerned that
women become aware of the dangers of
the Human Papillona Virus, a condition
that can be a precursor for cervical can—
cer and leaves no visible sign of infection.

In between seminars, students will
also have the op ortunity to browse
the Resource Pavilion. Eighteen differ-
ent or anizations will set up booths in
the lo by of the technical building
with the intention of informing “con-

ference participants of various
resources in the community related to
health, welLbeing, and entrepreneur-
ship," said Laura Nicol, an educational
talent search counselor at LCC.

(iroups‘ iii the pavilion will include
the Lexington Rape Crisis Center, the
Child Care Council of Lexington and
other resource services. The Child
Care Council will “provide information
on how women can look for legitiv
mate and safe daycare," Nicol said.

Mso, representatives of self-
employment organizations like Mary
Kay Cosmetics and The Pampered
Chef will also “share their experiences"
as women entrepreneurs, Nicol said.

The conference costs $5, which will
include bagels, muffins and juice for
breakfast. Door prizes, including a
night in a Lexington hotel suite. will
be awarded after (ilasscock's talk.

Investigative comments from Lexington Police

.\lthough hazing violates state law, universities

the lnstitutions of Higher Learning section in
Kentucky Revised Statutes.

“This is under the student code, so it would be

said Stockhani, who said SM“. has had “disciplinary

Four student organizations will host
a karaoke contest tomorrow to pro—
mote cultural divcrsity and celebrate
the annual Chinese Moon Festival.

The Moon Festival, or Mid-
Autumn Festival, is an important Chi—
nese holida , second only to the Chi-
nese New ear. It is celebrated during
the middle of the eighth lunar month.
Like Thanksgiving, the Moon Festival
is a time of family reunion.

Families often travel long distances
to have dinner together to celebrate
the ancient tradition.

“We welcome all students, Ameri—
can and international, to this event,”
said Kara Cheung, president of the
Hong Kong Student Association.

Her organization has worked with
the Chinese Student and Scholar Asso-
ciation, the Malaysian Student Organi-
zation and the Chinese Student Associ-
ation (Taiwan) to organize the karaoke
contest. Students in all four organiza-
tions share similar cultures that recog-
nize the Moon Festival holiday.

The goal of the event is to promote
cooperation and communication
among students and to encourage stu-
dents to understand and appreciate dif-
ferent cultures.

The event allows students who can—
not travel home for the Moon Festival
to have fun and observe the festival’s
traditions.

“We want to provide a good time
for those students who can’t 0 home
to be with their families," said eo Cai,

resident of the Chinese Student and
Scholar Association. “We also want to
promote better communication among
the organizations."

“Audience members are welcome to
participate. Everyone is welcome to
come, Cheung said. The event is a
great way to bring together people of
different backgrounds, she said.

Students participating in the contest

said they were excited about getting to
have fun and make memories at the
same time.

“In an anlish-speakin country, it
is fun and more comforta ile to get to
sing in our native language," said
Ycechu Foo, a UK student who will
sing in the contest tomorrow night.

The Moon Festival Karaoke Con—
test will take place at 7 p.m. tomorrow,
Sept. 20 in the VVorsham Theater
which is located on the first floor of the
Student Center. Tickets are available
for $3 in advance and $5 at the door.
For tickets, students can call Leo Cai
or Kara Cheung in the Student Orga—
nizations at 2574109.

Although the Eli defense may
not have been superb. the LE
offense was opportunistic to say the
least against Smith Carolina.

The \Vildcats mustered 11) shots
in the game and four of them found

utes left. But in stepped Lchllc

; f :The life and times of two rival football programs in
the Midwest have come full—circle.

; Indiana and UK now look a lot alike in more ways
than one.

' ' Cam Cameron has taken the helm for the Indiana
Hoosiers and Hal has “mummified" the UK program.

j Both [U and UK feature two starting sophomore
Quarterbacks responsible for each team’s onward
tnarch to opposing goal lines.

‘ Identical l—l records are carried by the Hoosiers
and Cats into the “Battle for the Bourbon Barrel."

. These reflections and more of
Indiana and UK’s revamped teams
can be seen at Memorial Stadium in
Bloomington, Ind. when both teams
take to the gridiron for a 1 pm. CDT
showdown.

Thou h sitnilar to L'K's situation,
1U has (feveloped an identity of its
own under the first-year Hoosier
head coach Cameron and his newly
installed ro—offense he brought frotn
the \Vasliington Redskins, where he
was the quarterback coach.

Mutnme compared Cameron‘s
offense to the same one he brought
to Lexington from Valdosta, Ga.

“Offensively, they look kind of
like us," Mumme said. “They're kind
of a ball control passing team, and
B d they're doing that real well."

o 90's “It looks very complicated." IL'
quarterback jay Rodgers said of the newly installed
offense. “\\'e have a variety of formations. but at the
same time (Cameron) teaches it so well that it makes
it easier for us quarterbacks to adapt to.”

Rodgers has cotne a long way from his freshman
season where he started four of the ﬁnal five games of
IL"s 3—8 season. During the 1996 campaign. IL'
dropped a 3-0 decision to UK on Sept. 21 in a rain-
drenched, muddy Commonwealth Stadium.

IL' fell in its 1997 season opener to North Caroli-
na. 23-6, at Chapel Hill despite a strong showing.

Last weekend, the Hoosiers broke ree frotn a 7-6
half-time lead over Ball State en route to a second-
halfoffensive explosion and a 33-6 win, a game where
Rodgers threw for a career-high 408 yards on 27 of 39
passes and five touchdowns.

“I think that a lot ofpeople have a lot of conﬁdence
coming out of that game, especially our receivers."
Rodgers said. “\Ve were able to spread it around a lot
and get some people involved we really never have
gotten involved in the past."

However Cameron downplayed his team's offen—
sive output against Ball State.

“\Ve ran the same play over and over and over and
it was open, over and over and over.” Cameron said.
“1 think Saturday night's game was misleading."

Misleading or not, UK defensive coordinator Mike
Major said his defensive unit made some changes
because of the different looks the Hoosiers present.

“They run a pro-style offense where they do a lot
of shifting and motion,” Major said. “\Ve've had to
learn how to make adjustments and make sure we line
up correctly."

Lining up to run the NCAA’s No. 1 ranked offense
will be UK sophomore Tim Couch.

“I think we just need to go out and execute the
game plan,“ Couch said. “It’s going to be tough for
them to stop and if we go out and execute we’ll be
ﬁne."

Leadin the IL" defensive charge will be a young
but solid ine comprised of four returning starters
averaging 6—foot—3, 270 pounds.

Senior defensive tackle Benyard jones along with
sophomore defensive end Adewale ()gunleye anchor a
Hoosier defense that has seven sacks to its credit in
two games.

Jones said the key to the IU defensive game plan
on Saturday will be to put constant heat on Couch
while handling the experienced UK offensive line.

“They’ve got a pretty good front line,"]0nes said.
“It’s going to be very important because we can't let
them sit back there all day and pick us apart.”
